It's clear that I need a hobby. I'm feeling like since I've had kids, my life has become, well ... kids and work.  :-\\\\

I'm looking for inspiration here! What are your hobbies? Give me some suggestions!

I'm boring but my hobbies include reading, playing softball, teaching myself how to code using html, photography, and looking after our pets. Just doing the stuff that I enjoy I guess. I hope you find something to keep yourself occupied!

I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

I play Irish harp and fiddle, I sew a little (by hand, not machine), I read a lot about things  I'm really interested in (alternative healing (ayurveda, etc), psychology, spirituality and related topics), I like to take pictures (I used to scrapbook them, but I went digital a year ago).

Try this!

I spend a lot of time reading, and I've also recently done some felting, sugarcrafting and bookbinding. I liked the bookbinding best, but need to invest in more supplies if I want to do more of it. All of those (except, of course, the reading) were courses offered locally either at no charge, or dirt cheap. You might want to see what your local Council offers in terms of community education. Ours has all kinds of good stuff! I think I might try bellydancing next!  :)

The UK is rich with history.

Get yourself round some National Hertitage gaffs!

I do alot of photography, been taking pictures for about 25 years now....but have only recently taken classes on it....
I am very much into military history....I read alot of books as well
But I would say my biggest hobbie is travelling. I have been to 37 different countries.
